interferon

Hydroxycarbamide to interferon injection and side effects
I've been on 90ml
interferon
weekly for 6 weeks now and had suffered a sinus infection and flu symptoms since starting on the injections. I feel I have flu constantly achy and skin hot. I've had 2 lots of antibiotics. I'm due back to clinic in 2 weeks.

Availability of Interferon Scotland
I am currently on Pegylated
Interferon
and we are considering moving to Scotland, and wondered if this drug is readily available in hospitals there. I know that not all hospitals here in England provide it and hence the question regarding Scotland.

Change from Interferon to Pegasys
At last my trust has approved the change from basic
Interferon
to Pegasys. I have only been allowed standard
Interferon
for the past year, but the last few months my platlets have risen from 350 to nearly 700, and I have had to increase my injections to every other day.

Pegasys and breast feeding
I injected
interferon
throughout pregnancy and thankfully all went well. I now need to start taking it again. I'm currently breast feeding and would like to continue. I appreciate there probably isn't very much evidence about this but does anyone have any insight? Or has anyone done it?

Positive effect of interferon alpha 2b???
I also bought some over-the-counter stuff, like lactobacteria and a pack of suppositories with 1 mln units of
interferon
in each. Some women on Russian gyno/baby planning messaged boards were discussing it. I used a few suppositories one by one later but did not notice any difference.

Diabetes 2 - cause & treatment
One last problem – Herbs that induce B7 by lymphocytes also induce Inflammation by lym-phokines –
Interferon
, Interleukin 6 & Tumor Necrosis Factors. Inflammation leads to more Antibodies which results in-failure. The problem is fixed by a 2nd herb that minimizes in-flammation.

I hated those
interferon
needles, yet every two days I bared my arse (ass, butt) and my mother stabbed a needle in me. I took responsibility for myself. I did what had to be done whether I liked it or not, no matter how much it scared me.
